«El hombre no deja de jugar porque se vuelve viejo. Se vuelve viejo porque deja de jugar.» Bernard Shaw.

Negli ultimi quindici anni gli adulti che hanno avuto a che fare con il mondo dell'infanzia, insegnanti o genitori, hanno dovuto confrontarsi in modo graduale ma inesorabile con una crescente terminologia medico-psichiatrica: disturbi dell'attenzione, autismo, dislessia, discalculia... Le certificazioni sono aumentate in maniera esponenziale e molti bambini - che un tempo sarebbero stati indicati come turbolenti, indisciplinati, in difficoltà - oggi hanno una diagnosi precisa.

Early care and education for many children in the U.S. is in crisis. The period between birth and kindergarten is a critical time for child development, and socioeconomic disparities that begin early in children's lives contribute to starkly different long-term outcomes for adults.

This book argues that the structure of public education is a key factor in the failure of America's public education system to fulfill the intellectual, civic, and moral aims for which it was created. The book challenges the philosophical basis for the traditional common school model and defends the educational pluralism that most liberal democracies enjoy. Berner provides a unique theoretical pathway that is neither libertarian nor state-focused and a pragmatic pathway that avoids the winner-takes-all approach of many contemporary debates about education.
